Dollarman’s “We Belong” Is Now #2 On NY’s Reggae Chart

Posted on May 5, 2024 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

After fifteen weeks on The Foundation Radio Network NY Chart, Dollarman‘s trending single, We Belong, is now sitting in the #2 spot, second only to YG Marley‘s Praise Jah In The Moonlight. The updated chart, which was compiled by Clinton Lindsay, was published this past Friday, May 3rd.

We Belong came out at the beginning of the year (on January 1st). It’s a lovers-rock reggae track that was produced by both Dollarman and respected producer and musician Bernard Joseph. The song is being praised in part because of Dollarman‘s distinctive voice, skillful songwriting, and the clever way in which he tells the story. On a steady one-drop reggae rhythm, he pours out his heart to his love interest, explaining that despite all their ups and downs, they belong together.

If you haven’t done so as yet, stream and/or download We Belong on iTunes, Deezer, Apple Music, Spotify, and all other streaming platforms.
